LETHBRIDGE – The University of Lethbridge will turn 50 years old next year, and to celebrate activities are planned to spark a sense of nostalgia and promote a bright future.
In a media release, Dr. Mike Mahon, U of L president and vice-chancellor said that the school looks forward to celebrating this milestone in our history with the community of Lethbridge and southern Alberta. “Fifty years ago, our University began as a vision held within the hearts of many southern Albertans. Fifty years later, I’d say that vision has materialized. Today, the U of L is widely recognized as one of Canada’s top-ranked universities and a leading research institution.”
The 2017 year will be filled with special events and activities. First on the calendar is the Founders’ Day Weekend on Jan. 13 and 14.
As part of Founders’ Day, the U of L will announce some of the special initiatives and activities planned for the year, said Chris Horbachewski, vice-president of University Advancement and co-chair of the U of L’s 50th anniversary committee.
